 Here is my "the good the bad and the ugly" on Vauxhall holiday park. 1st of all we arrived on the wettest bank holiday Monday of all time and some of the pitches were flooded, so be warned.
THE GOOD
There are plenty of facility's at Vauxhall, including a bingo hall, several cashpoint machines and 2 clubs, one for adults and one for family's. The fun pool is great, but don't expect to do any serious swimming in it. There are plenty of food outlets for take aways and a good restaurant, albeit with a limited menu. The games room is good, containing a bar and 4 full size snooker tables and about 20 pool tables. Plenty for the kids to do during the day including a tree house, cycle hire mini go carts and a large amusement arcade. The on site shop is good, although there is a 24 hour ASDA just down the road from the camp too. Behind the camp there is a caravan spares shop (just right for people who break their jockey wheel on arrival) Staff were friendly and patrol the site regularly in clearly marked vans.
THE BAD
The pitches are far to small, when they say a car, a caravan and an awning they are talking literally. Some pitches were just big enough for a large tent, meaning the car had to be parked in the road. Other areas of the site had caravans double stacked making it difficult for people to get their cars out! The toilet/ shower block were not well cleaned!The fast food outlets should be renamed slow food outlets, in 1 evening my daughter waited 5 minutes for saveloy and chips I waited 10 minutes for chicken and chips and my wife waited 15 minutes for a kebab. All of which was at dinnertime? The reception is not 24 hour.
THE UGLY
while Vauxhall cannot be held directly responsible for the next bit and please bear in mind that I do have 3 children of my own, so I am not just moaning without knowing what I am talking about. The behavior of some children on the site was pretty awful! The cabaret in the family bar started at 22:00 and yet children were still running around the stage and dance floor while the performer was trying to do his act. This should have been dealt with by the parents and the entertainment staff. Additionally a large group of teenage girls trashed the toilets by throwing soaked toilet paper all over the toilets and a nearby car at around 3 am. This was not properly cleaned up the following day! There were plenty of chaps wandering around with "security" on their shirts but they must have gone to sleep when the lights went out.
Niggles apart Vauxhall is a good site with plenty to do in the surrounding area (try to hire a pleasure cruiser for 3 hours on the broads) as well as on site. We would defiantly go back and hope that next time the weather is better.

Well what can I say about this site ? Excellent value for money this is our 3rd year running and we are booked up for next year. Toilets & showers - clean & tidy we've had no trouble with them. Pitches - mostly hard standing all with electric & plenty of room we have a hobby with awning & annex & 4x4 and still room to put pool up for kids and have bbqs. Playground is excellent for kids or a game of ten pin bowlingo , crazy golf,bike hire,pool,darts,arcades,swimming.Out & about- catch the bus outside park 50p to town you can't park the car for that & have a pint or 3 ,loads of shops and facilities & places to visit,theme parks, broads, norwich, etc,etc & the beach is great. The Reedcutters Restaraunt does canny bait on the site. The entertainment on site is also excellent I must say I can't fault this site. TOP MARKS!

We spent the last 2 weeks of september here ,just before they close for a few weeks, this is the third year we have been.
We chose to stay in the camping area as it is closer to all amenities, but as there are tents there as well it did seem a bit noisy late at night (or rather early morning). When someone has a tv on in a tent there is no sound insulation, I think a lot of people forget that! We will try a touring area next time.
The showers and toilet blocks were cleaned to a good standard every morning but by the end of the day could get quite muddy (wear flip-flops).
There is lots to do on site and we made use of the swimming pool, ten pin bowling, pool etc. There is no charge for these. £2.50 gets a round of crazy golf in the jungle. Also fast food outlets, mini mart, bookies, gym and laundry.
Two entertainment bars (and a sports bar) mean that you can choose to be with children or not. The late night caberet in Starlight room was very good and late dancing in Regency bar.
A level 20 min walk and you're in town. Good shops, Saturday market, sea front and pleasure beach.
We recommend this site and wish it was closer to home so we could go more often.

Arriving on a Saturday afternoon we were greeted at the reception by very friendly staff who explained where our pitch for the weekend was. The pitch itself was a little hard to get the van in and out of but this was my only minor gripe. The facilities on site were very well maintained and of a very modern standard. The entertainment was first class and there was plenty to do during the day and in the evening. In fact if you fancied just staying on the park for the duration of your stay, you would not be bored. This has got to be one of the best parks I have ever stayed at. I have been before and will visit many more times in the future and plus it has a very apt name for a Vauxhall car enthusiast !

This year was our 3rd visit to Vauxhall and we found it to be as good as ever. They have a new go cart track which the kids loved. The swimming pools are great and have a great rapids area which is really popular. We have never had any trouble with the toilets or showers being dirty, they have always seemed clean and are cleaned regularly. We have a 24ft van but found we still had plenty of room on the pitch for our awning, car and picnic table. As the site is so close to the A47 and the A12 it is very convenient for trips out and about. It is also within walking distance of Great Yarmouths beautiful beach.
If we go to Yarmouth again it will always be my first choice.

This was our second visit to this campsite. The last time was about 4 years ago and we stayed in a static and had a very good time although the van was old and past it's best. This time however we stayed in our own touring caravan. Access to pitches was quite difficult with our outfit. We found the pitch very tight as we were right next to the bins and there was a tree marking the other boundary. Discovered inconsiderate campers filling water barrels and emptying buckets at 4 in the morning! The shower block was quite basic and in need of a good scrub. Hubbie says Gents were quite dirty most of the time. We were in the front field which is close to the busy main road so there is a lot of traffic noise. Restaurant was good but the take-aways were very poor quality compared to our last visit. The indoor pool was lovely and warm and well maintained. The night time entertainment was pretty poor unless you like a game of Bingo :( . Asda is close by for shopping and Great Yarmouth still has a lot to offer the stay at home Brit.

Holidayed here with friends in August. Found the pitches to be very small. Lucky we camped with friends and worked the pitches so we had a little bit more room. Had to be of pitch for 10am and new arrivals were waiting to go on pitch while we packed away. Leaflet says 11am for new arrivals! No one came and checked the pitches before use. Very badly organised. Swimming pool was clean and staff friendly. Shop does not sell Lager? Found this very strange! Washing up area is in ladies/gents toilets not very good when you want to give your partner a hand! Toilet/showers were clean and tidy. I would rate this site 7/10.

The pitch we had was on grass with electric hook-up, although some pitches were on hardstanding. We were quite near the main road which was quite noisy. The site had very good indoor pools which were lovely and warm. Two clubs, one of which was adults only, the other provided a good selection of entertainment for all the family. The restaurant had a varied menu and was very reasonable. The site had a lot of take-aways to choose from and even sold fresh shell fish daily. Lots to do on site. One shower block had some mould on the ceiling but the other shower block was much cleaner, both provided hot showers. There is an Asda a couple of minutes drive from the site. Five minutes drive to seafront. Overall a good site, would return.
